The CalAsian Foundation
Building the next generation of leaders and empowering today’s changemakers.
Equipping and Empowering The AAPI Community
Since 2010, the CalAsian Foundation has worked with leaders from California’s most influential companies to accelerate the success of the local, state, and national AAPI community.
Designed for Excellence
Our programs deliver professional leadership development, critical education and training, and promote civic engagement.
Geared for Influence
We empower the AAPI community with the training, knowledge, and connections to ensure our voices are heard and impact is felt.
Driving Change
We are creating a pipeline of leaders who will influence and positively change outcomes in our communities.
Our Programs
These programs have been specifically designed by CalAsian to help AAPI leaders, entrepreneurs, and organizations gain access to development training and resources.
Empower Corporate U
Empower Corporate U is intended to help re-engage staff members. We will do this by creating a means for staff members to find meaning and fulfillment in their work. We will explore creating and restoring healthy working relationships. We will breakdown myths and offer new insights that will create a more satisfying work environment.
Catalyst Leadership Program
This program aims to develop and connect the Sacramento region’s emerging leaders. During the program, participants will expand their individual leadership and management skills, create meaningful relationships with emerging leaders across different industries, and gain insight from the experiences of established community leaders.
Small Business Strong
Small Business Strong responds to the rise in anti-AAPI hate and discrimination by supporting AAPI small business owners with bias and cultural sensitivity training, engagement with policymakers, and culturally informed workplace mental health support to foster safety, resilience, and long-term strength.
NextGen Empower U
A three-month program designed to empower the next generation of AAPI college students and young professionals to discover and develop their own definition of life success through relationship building, creating a personalized toolkit through education, navigating their career throughout their lifetime, and generating wealth to create financial independence.
